What Fulham Has To Offer Published: 03.07.2010 | Author: gbrown | Category: Destinations Fulham is found between Putney and Chelsea and is one of the greenest suburbs in the English capital. Perhaps best known for its football team 鈥?which plays at Craven Cottage 鈥?it is also known for as a high quality shopping centre and for its ‘chic status’.

As well as the football stadium, Fulham is the home to high-end shops and boutiques, the Hurlingham Exclusive Sports Club and Fulham Palace.

Fulham FC is often overlooked as a London football club because of the success of its glamorous neighbours such as Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham and West Ham. However, in the 200910 season Fulham got to the UEFA Cup Final and outdid many pundit predictions. The club continues to attract huge crowds to its home games at Craven Cottage.

The Hurlingham Club is a centre of high prestige for sports in London Cheap Baseball Jerseys China Online , specialising in tennis. It is recognised by many because of the large, classically styled house and is used by many players to warm up before Wimbledon each year. It isn’t much of a tourist attraction, but for tennis fans it’s a great place to grab autographs and watch some of the world’s best players before the big tournament.

There are records going back as far as 700AD for the land that Fulham Palace is built on. At this time the ownership was transferred to the Bishop of Waldhere and the land was subsequently passed on to bishop after bishop until 1973. The palace originally owned 30 acres of land but this has been trimmed back to 12 acres by aspiring homebuilders.

Visitors to the palace are regularly amazed by the plants dotted around and much of this is thanks to Bishop Compton who, in the 17th century, imported many new species to the area, including the magnolia. Many of the trees at the palace remain from this time while others have been brought in more recently to complement Bishop Compton’s introductions. Another major attraction for visitors is the palace’s moat which is the longest in England.

Excavations on the site have found remains of other large scale buildings on the site as well as evidence of Roman settlers. A museum in the palace tells a lot of the area’s history and has many of the paintings that have been on display in the building over the years.

Although it’s unlikely that people moving to London will move into Fulham Palace, Fulham estate agents will be able to find a suitable property nearby.
